How to Convert an MUS to a WAV

Converting an MUS file to WAV format requires the use of Finale music editing software. Music files in MUS format are not accessible to other media players and editors. This makes the conversion to a more popular audio file format, such as WAV, necessary for the widespread use of your MUS file. Fortunately, you do not need extensive technical or programming knowledge to execute this conversion. You will only need to use the Finale software with which you already edit your MUS files.

Things You'll Need

• Finale audio management software

Instructions

1. Open the desired MUS file in your Finale audio management software.

2. Open the "File" tab on your menu bar and click the "Save As" option. This will open a file manager browser.

3. Enter a new name for the audio file into the file name bar, if desired. This may prevent confusion between your MUS and WAV files.

4. Click the "Save as Type" drop-down menu.

5. Choose ".wav" as your file type. This prepares your Finale editor to save a new copy of the MUS audio file in WAV format.

6. Click the "Save" button to complete the conversion.
